Collaborative Engineering: 'Towards Design Guidelines for Risk Management in Distributed Software Development'
van Grinsven, J.; de Vreede, G.-J. // 2002
Distributed software development activities require intense collaboration between groups who are scattered over geographically separated locations. While group-oriented software development has ...
Context Modeling in a Collaborative Virtual Reality Application as Support to the Design Process
García, J.; Restrepo, J. // 2002
Context can be used to define which knowledge should be considered in a virtual reality environment in which a multidisciplinary team will discuss modifications or developments in design, product ...
Design and Modification of Water-Stabilized Plasma Generator
Moravec, J.; Hrabovsky, M.; Matas, R. // 2002
Plasma torches with water-stabilized arcs provide an alternative to commonly used sources of thermal plasmas based on gas stabilised arcs or RF discharges. Such plasma torches with water-stabilized ...
Design as a Collaborative Process: A Systematic and Constructive Model for Developing Play Material for Blind/Visually Impaired Pre-School Children
Evyapan, N. A. G. Z. // 2002
This paper discusses a design process lived through, during the application of a model derived from design methodology and devised towards attaining a particular task. The task was: Designing a play ...
Design Education in the Information Age
Broadbent, J.; Cross, N. // 2002
We examine changes in design practice during the industrial and information ages from an evolutionary systems perspective. We conclude that: design practice and education have scarcely tapped the ...

Potentialites of Application of the Emerging Systems Engineering Standard AP233
Düsing, C. // 2002
Nowadays „systems engineering“ is a discipline which is mainly employed in the domains of aerospace and aeronautics. Nevertheless, this discipline is also applicable to other domains. One of the ...
Real Experiences of Virtual Worlds
Ucelli, G.; Conti, G.; Petric, J.; Maver, T. W. // 2002
The JCAD-VR framework is implemented to anticipate the use of VR within the creation phase of the design process. It creates simple parametric 3D-shapes directly in a co-edit VR environment, thus ...
Six Ingredients of Collaborative Virtual Design Environments
Horváth, I.; Vergeest, J. S. M.; Rusák, Z. // 2002
Collaborative virtual design environments (CVDEs) represent the fourth generation of CAD/E systems. These distributed design support systems are based on a still penetrating new paradigm. ...
Snapshots and Bookmarks as a Graphical Design History
Verlinden, J. C.; Igarashi, T.; Vergeest, J. S. M. // 2002
This paper presents a technique to enhance 3D modelling systems by displaying the design history during a design session. It offers the opportunity to select and annotate various stages of a model. ...
Supporting the Early Stages of Product Design by Function-Based Tools
Koch, M.; Meerkamm, H. // 2002
The state-of-the-art in the early stages of design is a situation, where practically no computer-supported tools for a designer’s work exist. To get rid of this problem and to make decisions ...

Boolean Searches
The following examples demonstrate some search strings that use boolean operators:
- design community
Find rows that contain at least one of the two words. - +design +community
Find rows that contain both words. - +design community
Find rows that contain the word “design”, but rank rows higher if they also contain “community”. - +design -community
Find rows that contain the word “design” but not “community”. - +design ~community
Find rows that contain the word “design”, but if the row also contains the word “community”, rate it lower than if row does not. - +design +(>community <decisions)
Find rows that contain the words “design” and “community”, or “design” and “decisions” (in any order), but rank “design community” higher than “design decisions” - design*
Find rows that contain words such as “design”, “designs”, “designing”, or “designer”. - "some words"
Find rows that contain the exact phrase “some words” (for example, rows that contain “some words of wisdom” but not “some noise words”). Note that the " characters that enclose the phrase are operator characters that delimit the phrase. They are not the quotation marks that enclose the search string itself.
